Make Crossword And Search Word

Well, creating games like this can be really hard. You need to use some structure to make this work. You basically need to build up a multidimensional array and keep track of what place is used for a word.

This should push you in the right direction: https://mitchum.blog/building-a-crossword-puzzle-generator-with-javascript/

I did something similar last year in Laravel using simple arrays and some helper functions to check word placement and overlaps. For frontend ideas or even logic inspiration, I looked at how puzzle generators work on a free games site that had word searches. Looking at those gave me a better idea of how to lay out the grid and handle diagonal or backward words. Kept it simple and did the rest manually.
